Show EMERY COUNTY PROGRESS. CASTLE PALE. UTAH WOMAN'S WORLD Be Smart! Choice of Fabric Hinges on Your Pattern By MANY Ertta Haley Maternity Fashion NEW SOhave come about developments in the fabric field, its a little difficult to begin selecting the right types to use with patterns. Then, too, many women who sew, especially beginners, select pattern and fabric without considering their relation to each other. Materials may be perfection and dream stuff, but unless you show them off to their best advantage with the proper style, both pattern and fabric lose much value. One of the best ways to learn how to select fabrics is to handle them before buying, as well as by working with them. If you feel inept at this type of thing, take along someone who knows materials or consult the salesperson who is usually expert at telling you about the goods. Try to avoid buying material before selecting a pattern. There are several reasons for this. First of all, your pattern gives you a guide as to how much material you'll need. Too much is a waste; too little may be impossible to replenish once you get started in the actual cutting and Gw--.'- $. k'V y sewing. Another reason for buying pattern first is that patterns give a guide . Labels will give all this information. Save the label and put in a place for safekeeping for the life of the fabric. Irons are good guides to pressing many fabrics as heat indicators give you the right temperatures for different materials. If you are uncertain as to how any fabric will behave, test it before sewing, and see whether you can afford to treat it accordingly. Fabrics that handle well give much satisfaction in their wearing as they will feel comfortable. Touch and hang fabric as you select and see if it feels nice in the hands. Note how it falls or drapes and you will have a pretty good idea of the final result. Observe Surface of Fabric While Cutting Pattern ' Standing fiber ends are called nap or pile. Velvet, velveteen and terry cloth are examples of pile fabrics. Wool broadcloth and doeskin are examples of nap fabrics while satin is a sheen fabric. In using any of the nap, pile or sheen fabrics, its important to cut alike as to the direction of the surface or they will look like different colored materials when put together. Select fabrics .... as to what types of fabric are suitable for this particular pattern. In this way you can avoid looking at a lot of materials which would certainly be inappropriate to the style you have chosen. Some patterns need materials which pleats easily; others need those which drape well while still others need a crisp material. Select materials which are appropriate to the use to which you're putting them. Articles needing frequent washing should carry the fast or sanforized lacolor, bels. Treat Materials As Directed Its not as common today as it was yesterday, but it still happens! That lovely dress over which someone put hours of sewing is ruined with its first washing, cleaning or pressing. Why? Simply, because there was no label to read or it was neglected when it came to cleaning the garment. Smart women know what they can expect from materials before they use them. Fragile fabrics are not intended to survive hard soap and water tubbings.

You'll soon find this out in the attempt, but why melt and ruin the fabric even in one spot when you could have read the label and found out? Some materials need steaming rather than pressing, like velvet. cause she and Chris simply can't get along, and it is better that children don't hear quarreling all the time, I know she is a very unde- veloped woman. If one of her small children asked to be put into another school because he simply couldnt get along with the other children, she would be very superior, would read a few of the flood of books on child care and child analysis and child psychology that are everywhere now, and would condition" Junior to his duty. But when she does exactly the same thing, and explains to everyone who is interested and to a great many who are not that she and Chris have decided that a friendly divorce is the wisest solution for their adolescent and undeveloped natures, she feels not only justified but very much to be pitied and helped. Marriage Is a Job It would be a pity to disillusion and perhaps alarm our brides wife a few simple facts about the job that being a wife is. We take great pains to tell them a lot about other facts of life, some of which never need be put into words at all, but we dont tell them that into every k -- be- appropriate to patterns. for example. Some rayon will wash but need a cool iron and no sprinkling. Some take to a bleach while others are ruined by them. THE READER'S COURTROOM - By May You Sue Somebody-J- ust to be Nasty?

A woman owned a night club on the edge of town. Eight next door was a vacant lot. which was restricted to residential purposes only. One day the woman bought this property and began using it as a free parking lot for her patrons. When the neighbors went to court for an injunction, she argued that the lot wasn't being used for a business purpose" because she didnt charge people for parking there. However, the court ordered her to discontinue the practice at once. The judge said that in reality the lot was being used as part of her night club business and therefore violated the restriction. 0 YftOWm,iass NeveRFATLS'A(,WAyS POPS'.

But after all, she finished, isnt anything better than for children to grow up in a quarrelsome home?

President Truman finally unloaded a equestrian statue of one of his favorite characters, Andrew Jack-so- ot n. With about 1,500 fellow Jackson countians looking on, he gave the statue of Old Hickory to the county. It took the President 15 years to dispose of the statue, but everybody seemed happy when Margaret Truman unveiled it in subfreezing weather on the courthouse lawn. When he was presiding judge of the county court Truman thought it would be a fine idea to have a Jackson statue in front of the new courthouse in Kansas City.
